An Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED for short) is now one of hotspots in the research field of display. Compared with Liquid Crystal Display (LCD for short), the OLED has the advantages such as low energy consumption, low production cost, self-illumination, wide viewing angle and fast response speed, and has been widely used in the field of display such as mobile phones, tablet computers and digital cameras.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Multiple embodiments are described in the present disclosure, but the description is exemplary rather than limiting. For a person of ordinary skill in the art, there may be more embodiments and implementation solutions within the scope of the embodiments described in the present disclosure. Although many possible combinations of features are shown in the drawings and discussed in the Detailed Description, many other combinations of the disclosed features are also possible. Unless specifically limited, any feature or element of any embodiment may be used in combination with or in place of any other feature or element of any other embodiment.

The present disclosure includes and conceives of combinations of the features and elements known to a person of ordinary skill in the art. The embodiments, features, and elements that have been disclosed in the present disclosure may also be combined with any of conventional features or elements to form technical solutions defined by the claims. Any feature or element of any embodiment may also be combined with feature(s) or element(s) from other technical solution(s) to form another technical solution defined by the claims. Therefore, it should be understood that any of the features shown and/or discussed in the present disclosure may be implemented individually or in any suitable combination. Therefore, the embodiments are not otherwise limited except in accordance with the appended claims and equivalents thereof. In addition, various modifications and changes may be made within the protection scope of the appended claims.

Unless otherwise defined, technical terms or scientific terms used in the present disclosure shall have common meanings as construed by a person of ordinary skill in the art to which the present disclosure pertains. The “first”, “second”, and similar terms used in the present disclosure do not indicate any order, number, or importance, but are used only for distinguishing different components. Similar words such as “including” or “comprising” mean that elements or articles preceding the words cover elements or articles listed after the words and their equivalents, and do not exclude other elements or articles. Terms like “connect” or “couple” are not limited to physical or mechanical connection, but may include electrical connection, whether direct or indirect. “Up”, “down”, “left”, “right”, etc. are only used to represent a relative position relationship that may change accordingly when an absolute position of an object described changes.

A transistor is an element that at least includes three terminals, i.e., a gate electrode, a drain electrode and a source electrode. The transistor has a channel region between the drain electrode (drain electrode terminal, drain region, or drain) and the source electrode (source electrode terminal, source region, or source), and a current may flow through the drain electrode, the channel region, and the source electrode. In this specification, the channel region refers to a region which the current mainly flows through. A first electrode may be a drain electrode and a second electrode may be a source electrode, or the first electrode may be a source electrode and the second electrode may be a drain electrode. In cases that transistors with opposite polarities are used, or a current direction changes during work of a circuit, or the like, functions of the “source electrode” and the “drain electrode” may sometimes be exchanged. Therefore, the “source electrode” and the “drain electrode” may be exchanged in the present specification. In addition, there are two types of transistors: P-type transistor and N-type transistor, wherein the P-type transistor is turned on when its gate is at a low level and turned off when its gate is at a high level, and the N-type transistor is turned on when its gate is at a high level and turned off when its gate is at a low level.

With the maturity of OLED display technology, people's demand for high-frequency OLED display products is becoming more and more urgent. As for the high frequency OLED display products, a pixel circuit includes a drive transistor and a storage capacitor. Because the scan signal in the pixel circuit keeps an effective level for a short time, charges stored in the storage capacitor is insufficient, and a threshold voltage compensation for the drive transistor is insufficient, so that display of an OLED display product is uneven and the display effect of the OLED display product is reduced.

In an exemplary embodiment, a length of a channel region of the fourth transistor T4 is greater than a threshold length, and a width of the channel region of the fourth transistor T4 is greater than a threshold width. When the fourth transistor T4 is turned on, the channel region of the fourth transistor T4 is conductive, and a capacitance is formed between the channel region and the control electrode of the fourth transistor T4. Since the length of the channel region of the fourth transistor T4 is greater than the threshold length and the width of the channel region of the fourth transistor T4 is greater than the threshold width, the capacitance value of the capacitance formed between the channel region and the control electrode of the fourth transistor T4 is larger.

As shown in FIGS. 7 to 9 , the pixel circuit according to an exemplary embodiment includes eight switch transistors (T1, T2, T3, T4, T6, T7, T8, and T9), one drive transistor (T5), one capacitor unit (Cst), six input signal lines (Gate, RST1, RST2, RST3, EM, and Data), and three power supply terminals (VDD, VSS, and Vinit).

The first power supply line VDD continuously provides a high level signal, and the second power supply line VSS and the initial signal line Vinit continuously provide a low level signal.

A pixel circuit provided by an exemplary embodiment includes a first stage S1 to a sixth stage S6.

In the first stage S1, namely a preparation stage, as shown in FIG. 9A, an input signal of a first reset line RST1 is at a low level, and a first transistor T1 is turned on. An input signal of a scan signal line Gate is at a high level, and a second transistor T2 and a third transistor T3 are turned off. An input signal of a second reset line RST2 is at a high level, and a fourth transistor T4 and a sixth transistor T6 are turned off. An input signal of a light emitting control line EM is at a high level, and a seventh transistor T7 and an eighth transistor T8 are turned off. An input signal of a third reset line RST3 is at a high level, and a ninth transistor T9 is turned off. Since the first transistor T1 is turned on and the second transistor T2 is turned off, a first node N1 cannot be reset. The first stage S1 is the preparation stage of a second stage S2.

In the second stage S2, namely a reset stage, as shown in FIG. 9B, the input signal of the first reset line RST1 is at a low level, and the first transistor T1 is turned on. The input signal of the scan signal line Gate is at a low level, and the second transistor T2 and the third transistor T3 are turned on. Since the first transistor T1 and the second transistor T2 are turned on, an initial signal line Vinit provides an initial signal for the first node N1 to start charging the first node N1. At this time, it is to start charging a storage capacitor Cst to prepare for the writing of a data signal in a third stage. Since a difference between a voltage value of the first node N1 and a voltage value of a second node N2 is greater than a threshold voltage of the fifth transistor, the fifth transistor T5 is turned on. The input signal of the third reset line RST3 is at a low level, the ninth transistor T9 is turned on, and the initial signal line Vinit provides the initial signal for an anode of an organic light emitting diode OLED to initialize the anode of the organic light emitting diode OLED. The input signal of the second reset line RST2 is at a high level, and the fourth transistor T4 and the sixth transistor T6 are turned off. The input signal of the light emitting control line EM is at a high level, and the seventh transistor T7 and the eighth transistor T8 are turned off.

In the third stage S3, namely a write compensation stage, as shown in FIG. 9C, the input signal of the scan signal line Gate is at a low level, and the second transistor T2 and the third transistor T3 are turned on. The input signal of the second reset line RST2 is at a low level, and the fourth transistor T4 and the sixth transistor T6 are turned on. Since the third transistor T3 and the fourth transistor T4 are turned on, the input signal of the data signal line Data is written to the second node N2. When the fourth transistor T4 is turned on, the fourth transistor T4 is equivalent to a capacitor Cm, the input signal of the data signal line Data charges the capacitor Cm through the third transistor T3, and the input signal of the data signal line Data charges the storage capacitor Cst through the third transistor T3, the fourth transistor T4, the fifth transistor T5 and the sixth transistor T6 to compensate for the first node N1. The voltage value of the second node N2 is quickly equal to the voltage value Vdata of the input signal of the data signal line Data over the charging time. At this time, a voltage difference across the capacitor Cm is V2-Vdata, where V2 is a voltage value of the second reset line RST2 in the third stage. Since the input signal of the data signal line Data charges the storage capacitor Cst through the fifth transistor T5, as the voltage value of the first node N1 rises, a current flowing through the fifth transistor T5 becomes smaller and smaller, and the voltage value of the first node N1 rises more and more slowly. Since an on time for each line of high-frequency display products is short, namely a time in which the input signal of the scan signal line Gate is at the low level is short, the voltage value of the first node N1 is smaller than Vdata-|Vth| at the end of the third stage S3, where Vth is the threshold voltage of the fifth transistor T5. The input signal of the scan signal line Gate is switched to be at the high level, the third transistor T3 is turned off, and the writing of the input signal of the data signal line Data is finished. The input signal of the third reset line RST3 is at a low level, the ninth transistor T9 is turned on, and the input signal of the initial signal line Vinit is provided to the anode of the organic light emitting diode OLED to initialize the anode of the organic light emitting diode. The input signal of the first reset line RST1 is at a high level, the first transistor T1 is turned off, the input signal of the light emitting control line EM is at a high level, and the seventh transistor T7 and the eighth transistor T8 are turned off.

In a fourth stage S4, namely a compensation stage, as shown in FIG. 9D, the input signal of the scan signal line Gate is at a high level, the second transistor T2 and the third transistor T3 are turned off, the input signal of the second reset line RST3 is at a low level, and the fourth transistor T4 and the sixth transistor T6 are turned on. Although the third transistor T3 is turned off and there is no signal to continue signal writing to the storage capacitor Cst, the input signal of the data signal line Data is written at one end of the capacitor Cm in the third stage. In this case, the capacitor Cm starts to discharge, and the storage capacitor Cst is continuously charged through the fifth transistor T5 and the sixth transistor T6 to compensate for the first node N1, and the voltage value of the first node N1 continues to rise until the fifth transistor T5 is turned off. In this case, the voltage value of the first node N1 satisfies the threshold condition, that is, the voltage value of the first node N1 is equal to Vdata-|Vth|. Since the voltage value of the first node N1 rises slightly in this stage and charges of the capacitor Cm consumed is limited, the capacitor Cm may be approximately a constant voltage source. The input signal of the first reset line RST1 is at a high level, and the first transistor T1 is turned off. The input signal of the light emitting control line EM is at a high level, and the seventh transistor T7 and the eighth transistor T8 are turned off. The input signal of the third reset line RST4 is at a high level, and the ninth transistor T9 is turned off.

In a fifth stage S5, namely a buffer stage, as shown in FIG. 9E, the input signal of the first reset line RST1 is at a high level, and the first transistor T1 is turned off. The input signal of the scan signal line Gate is at a high level, and the second transistor T2 and the third transistor T3 are turned off. The input signal of the second reset line RST2 is at a high level, and the fourth transistor T4 and the sixth transistor T6 are turned off. The input signal of the light emitting control line EM is at a high level, and the seventh transistor T7 and the eighth transistor T8 are turned off. The input signal of the third reset line RST3 is at a high level, and the ninth transistor T9 is turned off. In this stage, the voltage value of the first node N1 remains unchanged.

In an exemplary embodiment, the duration of the fifth stage S5 depends on a time point at which the falling edge of the input signal of the light emitting control line EM occurs.

In a sixth stage S6, namely a light emitting stage, as shown in FIG. 9F, the input signal of the light emitting control line EM is at a low level, the seventh transistor T7 and the eighth transistor T8 are turned on, the storage capacitor Cst starts discharging, the fifth transistor T5 is turned on, and the fifth transistor T5 outputs a drive current to drive the organic light emitting diode OLED to emit light. The input signal of the first reset line RST1 is at a high level, and the first transistor T1 is turned off. The input signal of the scan signal line Gate is at a high level, and the second transistor T2 and the third transistor T3 are turned off. The input signal of the second reset line RST2 is at a high level, and the fourth transistor T4 and the sixth transistor T6 are turned off. The input signal of the third reset line RST3 is at a high level, and the ninth transistor T9 is turned off.

The drive current I_(OLED) satisfies the following formula:

IOLED=K(Vsg−|Vth|)² =K(Vdd−(Vdata−|Vth|)−Vth)² =K(Vdd−Vdata)²

Where Vsg is a voltage difference between a source electrode and a gate electrode of the fifth transistor, Vdd is a voltage value of the signal of the first power supply line, and K is a constant related to process parameters and geometric dimensions of the fifth transistor T5.

It can be seen from the derivation results of the above current formula that in the light emitting stage, the drive current outputted by the fifth transistor T5 is not affected by the threshold voltage of the fifth transistor T5, and is only related to a signal of the data signal line, thereby eliminating an influence of the threshold voltage of the fifth transistor T5 on the drive current, ensuring the uniformity of the display brightness of the display product, and improving the display effect of the whole display product.
